Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Lexington, MA.

When a person has overcome substance abuse problem, it isn't as simple as picking up where you left off. Restoring a positive and happy life takes time and a lot of hard work. A Halfway House, a.k.a. a Sober Living Facility, is a place where people in recovery can go where they can live in a drug and alcohol free and supportive environment until they can live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a requirement of a person's parole for example, or the individual may decide to live in a Halfway House of their own accord after drug or alcohol rehab. Either way, residents of a Halfway House are drug and alcohol free and working towards doing what they need to do to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, finding employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Lexington are run by individuals who in most instances were once occupants of the house. How long a person is allowed to live at the Halfway House will differ, but it's typically anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents must comply with drug and alcohol testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will happen randomly to make sure there is not any drug use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more effectively handled in an addiction recovery facility.
